The undrained behavior of saturated, dilatant silts
… soil pore water are the cause of the erratic undrained behavior often observed in triaxial tests on saturated, dilatant silts. The literature indicates that ground water contains various amounts of dissolved gases and that gases dissolved in soil pore water will have sufficient time to exit …

AN INVESTIGATION OF SOIL WATER MOVEMENT ON DRAINED AND UNDRAINED CLAY GRASSLAND IN SOUTH WEST ENGLAND
… nested experimental design (1 m² to 1 ha) on one undrained and one drained site throughout a drainage season (October to March). Results at the hectare scale demonstrated that drainage did not substantially alter the volume of field runoff ( ~ 400 mm) but did change the dominant flowpaths. …

An Examination of the Validity of Steady State Shear Strength Determination Using Isotropically Consolidated Undrained Triaxial Tests
… is based on the assumption that the steady state undrained shear strength is a unique function of the in situ void ratio and effective stress. This method, which has been applied to liquefaction and flow failures, has been criticized because it may overestimate the in situ shear strength. The key …

The influence of effective consolidation stress on the normalized extension strength properties of resedimented Boston blue clay
The ability to accurately determine the undrained shear strength of cohesive soil is of particular importance to the practice of geotechnical engineering. Ladd & Foot (1974) presents a method to determine the undrained shear strength based on the concept of normalized soil parameters; called the …
